Question

Two bodies are dropped from the same height at the same time on the surface of the moon. They will have

• A. same velocity
• B. same acceleration
• C. same speed
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is B

same acceleration

Moon has no atmosphere. Hence, bodies falling in moon do not experience buoyancy or viscous forces. In the absence of air resistance, all objects will be experiencing same acceleration. Therefore, at a particular instant, they will have same increase in velocity and same acceleration.
